What is the difference between Leatherman 830039 New Wave Multitool and Leatherman 830040 New Wave Multitool?
5347
The difference is the 830039 comes with a Leather/Nylon Combination Sheath and the 830040 comes with a Nylon Sheath, the Wave is the same. I prefer the 830040 because it has a hole in the bottom of the sheath allowing the Wave to be carried in the pliers ready to use position (CAUTION, do not set down with it in this position).

Apparently it is a difference in quality, if it doesn't measure up for some reason it goes into the lower category so I read online in a forum (but I haven't noticed any difference), but it is possibly the sheath included in the pack?

The Surge does not have a hex head attachment point. The included phillips/slot driver are unique as far as I know. Unless Leatherman makes an extension.

The one I got was a leather sheath. The leatherman fitted very nicely, but if you want the 40 bit set to go in with it, you will need to get a different sheath.

Hard to put a number on it, I've never broken any of my Leathermans. The Surge is definitly one of my favs along with the Wave. I'd give those both a 9 out of 10, maybe a ten for the black Surge just for the cool factor. They're almost identical until you compare their relative sizes. The wave is just a bit smaller & easier to carry. The Surge is a bit more robust & has a little extra leverage to boot for some of the bigger task. I have both and wouldn't give up either. Hope this helps...

Unfortunately, not on this model. Leatherman has at least one multitool with replaceable wire cutters (I think it's the Rebar..?). But the cutters on the Charge are very strong. Hope that helps!

Yes it is. It comes with a Phillips and a Flat one, both on two sizes, if you happen to have more bits (Leatherman "flat" ones) you can carry two on the multi tool.

This item I believe is american made and supply and demands usually is more privledged to us military given its from Gerber. If you Google the Gerber multitool for there website you can ask on there website for more detail information. But I for one have been using Gerber mutitools ever since I was in the military and can guarantee its the best as of yet of mutitools that I've used so far.

I can confirm that both bit packs fit in the "Leatherman Premium Nylon Sheath 4" For Charge Wave Blast Crunch Fuse 934810".I cannot speak to any other available sheath products. Thanks!

The Leatherman.com web site under ACCESSORIES then under US REPLACEMENT BITS indicates the bits fit the original Surge and present Surge.Hope this helps.

It is exactly the one on the left in the picture, the Basic skeletool with the serrated blade, 420 HC steel (which sharpens easily), and aluminum liners to reduce weight. Not sure what model number it is. I find it very lightweight and useful, really my EDC knife until I get myself a CRTK.

According to the website, its just different packaging. The tool is the same in either case, go with whichever is cheaper

Unsure. I've used several different Leatherman multi tools over the last 18 years and have not had any of them fail.

If you want a decent multitool with spring loaded pliers you'll have to go with gerber leatherman quality is much higher but they do not offer spring loaded pliers

It depends. They both make different tools but with some overlap. When it comes to multi-tools like these though, leatherman all the way!

Good question,, I don't see the difference between the two but the leather man 831547 is every thing I need and still using it everyday

I have no info on the one shown in the photo, but Gerber has a tool that is 100x better. Check out the Gerber 22-41770 Artifact Pocket Keychain Tool

They are identical except for the handle design. 830862 is older and has the textured finish on the entire titanium piece, whereas the 831154 is newer and has the textured finish only halfway across. Some say the new design leaves a sharp edge where the texture stops, but I've been using mine for almost 3 months and no issues. Just decide which look you prefer
